[QUOTE="BF Hammer, post: 844436, member: 48483"] Several weeks ago I had dug out my 45 year old Reflex NIKKOR C 500mm f/8 lens and disassembled it. I cleaned the mirrors and lenses with lint-free lens wipes to try to remove a film I could kind of see, and it seemed to make the photos soft and fuzzy. I did not test right away, and I did not think to try to test until today. I finally have sunshine to go in the back yard and chase the birdies. First I used the lens by itself (Nikon Zf + FTZ) then I added a cheap 2x teleconverter in between for 1000mm reach.
